the Seventh Congressional District,
who said we are all SO anxious to get
to the dinner table that his speech
would be short. 1t was "short and
sweet"
But-the dinner, the dinner to which
we all had free. Such dinner
We did it justice in fact, but we can't
in words. So abundant! Such boiled
ham! Such bread! Such coffee
Such doughnuts! Such ice-cream
Such apple pie! And then, that 800
could be served with so much order,
with so little confusion and with such
promptness. Every tongue was full
of praise save one. Her memories
will ever linger in our minds like
sweet perfume. wherever in the prov
idence of God, our lot may be cast.
Whenever we think of her women,
we shall know they understand the
woman's great secret, that the "road
to mans affections, runs straight
through his stomach" We shall
know that the women of Topeka, for
getting up big dinners beat the world.
Topeka is beautiful city. Her
capitol, when completed, will be ex-
seeded by few if any in any state in
the Union. The Representative
chamber in which the reception is
held, is grand! We were sorry that
time did not allow us to see the pro-
ducts of this great state, the last day
of her state fair, but from what we
did see, there are no special signs, be-
cause she has banished that bane Of
the nation's-the saloon-she is going
to everlasting smash.
But few incidents of interest hap
pened on the journey from Los Veges,
unless we mention the accident to Fl.
G. Thomas, ESQ.,, of Los Angeles who
had two of his fingers smashed flat as
a knife blade in door. A surgeon on
board pressed them into shape, and
they are doing we'll, though very pain
full.
Going down very steep grade into
the Valley of the Rio Grande, the
couplin pin of the engine leaped out,
leaving the heavy train some 800
yards in the rear. But for the perfec-
ton of the automatic air-brakes, the
Tehatchapa disaster would have been
a trifling affair in comparison to what
would have happened.

The Washington Monument.

For a number of years there has
existed in the minds of few persons
doubts as to the sufficient size and
stability of the foundation. These
apprehensions becoming widespread,
a joint commission was appointed by
Congress, consisting of the President
of the United States, the Vice-Presi-
dent of the monument society, the
Chief of Engineers of the Army, and
the architects of the Capitol
and Treasury, with instructions
to make an INVESTIGATION of the
work already done and to
direct and supervise the conr
pletion of the structure. This joint
commission caused special investi-
cation to be made by capable engi-
neers, who reported that the founda-
tion was in an unsatisfactory condi-
ton, and that it would be "unsafe to
subject it to any additional load what
ever. The embodiment of these facts
in the commissions first report to
Congress led to the enactment of a
Joint resolution, June IA, 1873, author
izing the expenditure of 1886, 900, if
deemed advisable, to giving greater
stability to the foundation"
An aneedote of this date related by
a well-known citizen OF New York
may illustrate the anxiety felt at that
period as to the safety of that struc-
Eture. President Hayes had taken out
New Yorker for an afternoon
drive, and the carriage stopped in
front of the monument.
II have never been so near BEFORE"
remarked the guest
ooh! don't be alarmed" instantly
replied Mr.. Hayes; ,'the commission
has just reported, and it may not fall
down for some time yet."-[Oscar
Foote, in The American Magazine for
October.

A NEW MAN.
To the Editor of the Statesman.

10 the Editor OF the Statesman.
The present senatorial race and deep
water are the important questions of the
hour which agitate the public mind.
Whom shall we send to the United States
senate, and how about deep water? The
men who make 100000 bales of cotton,
3O,OOO,OOO pounds of wool and raise $780,
600 head of cattle annually, all of which
find market beyond the limits of the
state, require proper representative in
the United States senate; he must be a
man of broad commercial views and
craftsmanship, and certainly such man
will not be found in one who faVors cheap
short hauls and dear freight on long hauls
call 1t what you may-interstate COM
merce or interstate humbug. Neither do
they want man in the United States SEN
ate who draws his inspiration largely from
the other man.
Texas wants to-day a man that will not
get into ruts already worn too deep by
feeble men without the vigor to get out
OF them. Let us have a new man in
Washington, and not lose sight of the
fact: Texas has interests at stake, and
the Legislature has not met TO confer a
favor on any politician who has worn the
official collar until his withers are CALLED.
Let US have new life, new blood and new
man in the United States senate.
Respectfully, JOHN WILLETT.
Austin, January 29, 1887.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1887-02-03

Sr1rEsMAs "tariff argument" within the
range of THAR comprehension, they all
sieze upon it to show what they know
about the tariff, to-wit, that the "protec-
ion democrat" of pennsylvania is named
Samuel ]. Randall. This is evidently
the first time the tariff discussion has
been brought down low enough tor them
to catch hold, and they have eagerly
swung out upon this limb OF the
great question, calling loudly upon their
readers to see that they had caught hold
and were there. Many of them have ask
ed, in tone of supreme confidence in
their tariff learning: "Who is james H..
Randall" Well, The STATESMAN has found
out that it will have to be patient with
these little children of the press and teach
them slowly. If they will be dutiful read
ers of our columns they will after awhile
be able to show up right respectfully on
the tariff. Not wishing to divert their
minds from the consideration of this i'm
portant political question, The STATESMAN
will turn aside for moment to
acquaint them with this man James K.
Randall, of whom they have never heard
before. Fortunate will it be for Samuel
j. Randall if he can ever get his name
COMPOUNDED in history with that of James
R. Randall. For when the name of Sam
uel j. Randall shall have passed from the
memory of man, that of James K. Randall
will live with honor in American litera-
ture. Little children, hearken! James
R. Randall is the author of
"My Maryland" and other beautiful
poems. Had he done no more than write
this one song his name would live while
English verse is read and sung. He is
resident of Augusta, Ga; but for many
years has taken quarters in Washington
City during the sessions of congress, and
is we'll known to all readers of respect
able newspapers from Maine to California
and Texas as the able and brilliant cor
respondent of the Augusta Chronicle
His long association with Hon. Joseph
Brown, of Georgia, and Hon. Samuel j..
Randall, being poet and not a political
economist, has warped his Judgment In
regard to practical and theoretical
politics to such a degree that he is emit
tied like Samuel j. to a position in the
Blaine branch of the republican party
he is pronounced protectionist. This
crime against political philosophy the
country will pardon in him, because of
his divine gift of poesy, which enabled
him TO contribute MY Maryland" TO
American letters. We hope that our we'll
meaning but ignorant weaker breth-
eren" of the press will call on The
STATESMAN any time for information in
regard to public questions; but we regret
that we cannot continue this course of
instruction on American authors for lack
of space in our columns, a time from
our labors. Though it is always pleasure
to US to help along those of very limited
knowledge,
